i love this performance to death.
imho, ayu may have seen a cirque du soleil show or a clip of one performance and was inspired by them. alterna's perf. during at 06 was SOOOO reminiscent of their style that i was seriously in awe. of course, ayu made it all her own...
there's something about the way this was performed that struck me as both vulnerable and oddly human. first there's the ayu in the "tube" at the beginning, trying to curl up and stay unaware/unconscious, but she keeps being jolted by these harsh, sudden sounds. in the video at the end, the one that kept being jolted awake ends up being the only ayu in the tubes who has her eyes open and it's just so.... creepy. i wish i could analyze the performance better, but i can't make much sense of it.
